The initial stress of rock is a basic parameter, which can be used for surrounding rock stability analysis, exploitation and support design. By utilizing stress relief method of hollow inclusion with its characters of high precision and obtaining three dimensional stress at one time, we have measured three dimensional stress magnitude and direction in north wing roadway (-850m) and 710 open-off cut (-1000m), respectively. The results show that the horizontal tectonic stress is obvious in this coal area.

This paper presented a case study of the failure mechanisms and support design for deep composite soft rock roadway in the Yangcheng Coal Mine of China. Many experiments and field tests were performed to reveal the failure mechanisms of the roadway. It was found that the surrounding rock of the roadway was HJS complex soft rock that was characterized by poor rock quality, widespread development of joint fissures, and an unstable creep property. The major horizontal stress, which was almost perpendicular to the roadway, was 1.59 times larger than the vertical stress. The weak surrounding rock and high tectonic stress were the main internal causes of roadway instabilities, and the inadequate support was the external cause. Based on the failure mechanism, a new support design was proposed that consisted of bolting, cable, metal mesh, shotcrete, and grouting. A field experiment using the new design was performed in a roadway section approximately 100 m long. Detailed deformation monitoring was conducted in the experimental roadway sections and sections of the previous roadway. The monitoring results showed that deformations of the roadway with the new support design were reduced by 85–90% compared with those of the old design. This successful case provides an important reference for similar soft rock roadway projects.

Mine disasters, such as large deformation, floor heave, and roof fall, occur extremely easily in weakly consolidated soft rock strata in western China, posing enormous challenges to traditional anchorage support design. To avoid tensile failure of bolts as a result of the superposition effect of stress accumulation, a segmentally yieldable anchorage support, taking into consideration the different failure zones in surrounding rock, is presented in this paper. First, load transfer mechanisms and the process of anchorage failure are analyzed for end anchorage, full-length anchorage, and segmentally yieldable anchorage based on numerical pull-out tests. Results show that the load transfer follows a multipeak chain-like trend in the case of multipoint segmental anchorage, and that the peaks of stress attenuate slowly. Therefore, the proposed anchorage type can leverage the shear strength effectively. Furthermore, numerical models for the applications of the aforementioned three different anchoring modes to weakly consolidated soft strata are established. Results indicate that segmentally yieldable anchorage can withstand larger tensile deformation and surrounding rock deformation. Moreover, the bolt shows higher strength reservation. A combination of these characteristics is conducive to controlling deformation and damage during roadway excavation.

Large deformation and failure of soft rock are pressing problems in the mining practice. This paper provides a case study on failure mechanisms and support approaches for a water-rich soft rock roadway in tectonic stress areas of the Wangzhuang coal mine, China. Mechanic properties of rock mass related to the roadway are calibrated via a geological strength index method (GSI), based on which a corresponding numerical simulation model is established in the Universal Discrete Element Code (UDEC) software. The failure mechanism of the roadway under water-saturating and weathering conditions is revealed by field tests and numerical simulation. It is found that the stress evolution and crack development are affected by weathering and horizontal tectonic stresses. The roadway roof and floor suffer from high stress concentration and continuous cracking, and are consequently seen with rock failure, strength weakening, and pressure relief. Unfortunately, the current support system fails to restrain rock weathering and strength weakening, and the roadway is found with serious floor heave, roof subsidence, and large asymmetric deformation. Accordingly, a new combined support system of “bolt–cable–mesh–shotcrete + grouting” is proposed. Moreover, numerical simulation and field testing are conducted to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach, the results of which demonstrate the capacity of the proposed new support method to perfectly control the surrounding rock. Findings of this research can provide valuable references for support engineering in the soft rock roadway under analogous geological conditions.

Deep roadway deformation due to soft rock, rock dip, and horizontal tectonic stress is uneven and asymmetrical primarily in large loose zones. Traditional anchor support is influenced by the yield strength and shear strength of the anchors and has a limited prestress capacity or shear resistance. When the roadway roof is laminated rock or when the roadway passes through layered rock or rock interfaces, interlayer sliding commonly occurs, which can easily lead to anchor cables being sheared off. The tape tunnel in the Zhengling Mine passes through several rock strata and requires anchors to achieve a high shear resistance and prestress. To solve these problems, an anchor cable and C-shaped tube that can bear lateral shear forces were developed, and a full-section anchor cable and C-shaped tube support system were created based on extruded arch theory. Numerical results from FLAC3D show that the new scheme effectively controls surface convergence and plastic zone extension. Field tests have demonstrated that the amount of surface displacement was at least 42% smaller in the new support scheme. The extruded arch formed by the highly prestressed anchor cable and concrete spray layer can effectively control the bulking load within the loose zone, and the ACC effectively resists interlayer shear.

This paper synthetically analyzed essential features of various support methods in engineering geological soft rock, proposed a scheme that organically combines active support (like anchor bolt support) with passive support (like U-shaped steel bracket support), analyzed fundamentals of this combined support scheme, and forecasted support effect of this support scheme. It provides roadway support design with fresh ideas. U-shaped steel bracket can be translated into special anchor plate with the help of a section of simple steel channel beam, so effect of anchor bolt can be ensured; U-shaped steel bracket , this extremely long curved beam ,will be divided into several sections of short beams, so its bearing ability will be several times improved. Cost of this combined support scheme is low, its process is simple and its application prospect is wide.

Double primary support structures could effectively solve the problem of large deformation of surrounding rock for soft rock tunnels. However, the mechanical behavior of this new support structure is still incomplete, and the design method should be revised. Based on the theory of energy conversion, this paper analyzes the support characteristic curve of double primary support and puts forward the dynamic design method of double primary support. Considering that the secondary lining can be set after monitoring the deformation amount and deformation rate of the first primary support, its support parameters can be dynamically adjusted according to the actual situation. By applying the double primary support design method in the Maoxian tunnel of Chenglan Railway, the field monitoring results show that the double primary support has a significant effect on the energy release of surrounding rocks, greatly reducing the load acting on the secondary lining and ensuring the safety and reliability of the tunnel structure.
